FBI Missed Crooks Red Flags, Says Ex-Official

Former FBI official Chris Swecker criticizes the Bureaus handling of the Thomas Matthew Crooks case, suggesting they missed opportunities to prevent the alleged assassination attempt on former President Trump. Swecker, who spent 24 years with the FBI, rates their performance a C-, highlighting Crooks extremist social media posts, including threats of political violence and calls for terrorism-style attacks. He accuses the FBI of being too quick to label Crooks as a far-right lone gunman, potentially overlooking other evidence. Swecker urges current FBI Director Kash Patel to release unclassified files to provide full clarity on the case. The Daily News Now! - Every city. Every story. AI Powered. Hosted on Acast.
